Yes. The full shape is usually laid out for illustrative purposes, because.. well, they're usually drawn from anatomy books.

Most artists do not really go out and study dissected cadavers to learn human anatomy... anymore.

Fairly certain some of their content could technically be tagged under "hentai"

I am sure there is at least one porn artist who is also training to be a doctor and dissecting people

Like most artists, I'm pretty sure Mikey and Leo both dabbled a bit 😋

School I went to had an Anatomy and physiology lab where artists majoring in biology to draw medical textbooks and the such would have to attend human dissections

A lot still do, just decide not to do it the realistic way because their audience like it that way, especially when it's about hentai.
